He had one mic for his mouth, and one for his nipple???

[TehRavenclaww]

@AZURETOM I think his nipple does the backing vocals!

[KillCoopLoops]

@TehRavenclaww of course his nipple does the backing vocals... thats why Maynard only has to do one take when he records...

@pschodoughboy lol I much of rather seen john kosco as the lead singer instead of duvall and maynard has 3 bands already and a vineyard think he is just a little to busy with his own projects to in jerry cantrell's

[pschodoughboy]

@EvilassProductions, I always thought that Maynard recorded Eulogy using a bullhorn through a microphone. Being as Jesus talk to crowds of people at a time, I thought it was a nice touch. There are recording effects that simulate that sound. Unless you're talking about those little vocal "sounds" at the very beginning, that could be a talk box. I'd have to listen to it again. Good observation though...

@GodofReapers I know about talk-boxes. I am pretty sure this isn't a talk box, because their is no tube. He has too mics and the tube is what makes the sound similar to talking. Plus I don't think you could sing very well with a tube in your mouth (because he will sing through both mics at the same time)

I know all about Joe Walsh. They are all great. Peter Frampton of course used one all the time too. Alice in Chains - Man in a box used one.

I think the beginning of Eulogy uses one too.

@EvilassProductions @megustatocar420 It's called a talk-box, and it's a great little invention that allows your voice and your guitar to sort of blend into one by distorting each other. I'd recommend "Rocky Mountain Way" by Joe Walsh; he's a former member of the Eagles, so not exactly very heavy, but towards the end of the song he has a talk-box solo which absolutely DEFINES talk-box solos. The device was still fairly unused in music at the time, and it still is, but it's great.

@EvilassProductions You just read my mind with that lineup

[EvilassProductions]

@megustatocar420 XD

I think it is awesome. Basically he has the second mic hooked up to something similar to a guitar pedal which changes his voice. So he can A. sing normal, B. sing distored/different, and C. BOTH AT THE SAME TIME!

They really put on amazing live shows.
